How to increase mass to dynamic asteroids?

Doesn’t matter, every client sees his own randomly generated asteroid field.

So, dirty saying, freelancer client memory on actual moment of time is different than the memory of the server in this moment of time?

But how about cloak and multicruise plugins?

How do them operate - is it synchronisation?

There is quite a difference between syncing a simple value, like cruise speed, and syncing hundreds of dynamic asteroids, which includes for every single asteroid its position, orientation and speed vector, updated fairly often.

But that means that there could be an asteroid in my way while shooting some other player that is not there on his pc - that could lead to him not beeing dead on my pc, but on his pc. Could that happen or would my shots just go through the asteroid?

You will most likely see your shot hit the asteroid AND the player taking damage. The former is as reported by your client while the latter is transmitted from the server.

Speed exists only on client side in FL so no sync is required.

Strange thing about asteroids: they seems to actually BE SYNCED between the client, because, for instance, my enemy can hide behind an asteroid while fighting and i will see the same thing.
NPCs, though, have their own server side asteroids and fly through ones generated on client.

Hummm…. I just want to increase mass to make battleship be able hardly fly in asteroids field (hardly but without be stuck) and use a plugin is wasteful / sumptuous on this, is this can be done with hex edit?

Sorry for the necropost but I had the idea to create an entirely active asteroid field. Think of the asteroid field in The Empire Strikes Back… This asteroid field would be in an added system requiring a client mod to access.

The more I read on this the less likely it appears that this is even possible.

I wanted to find out how to do two things.
1). Add mass to dynamic asteroids that would actually impact the direction of the ship and hopefully also do damage
2). Create an entire asteroid field consisting of dynamic asteroids using randomly selected/sized asteroids.

This also has to be done in a way that does NOT affect the unmodded player in vanilla systems.

It looks like each of the asteroid types would have to exist in the asteroidarch.ini file as dynamic asteroids. It’s been my experience that adding anything to an arch file really messes things up for players running unmodded.

Now, as I read this thread I get the understanding that dynamic asteroids are randomly generated on the client side, not the server side. This could create problems with lag as well as confusion during pvp.

Is this an exercise in futility for a server running an optional vanilla compatible mod?
